抹茶と緑茶の違いについて。
ルイボスティーにはまってからは緑茶や紅茶あまり飲まなくなったけど、たまーに飲むと濃くて美味しい。
persuasion
意味 (かたく) [C][単数形で] 確信, 信念 ; 信条; (かたく/おどけて) 種類, タイプ
The green color in food is often associated with healthy eating or a bitter taste, depending on your persuasion. Matcha or green tea, on the other hand, seems to have escaped this perception, perhaps because it is visually pleasing when used in drinks like matcha smoothies and gives desserts an interesting flavor.

redundant
意味 〈物· 事が〉余分な, 不必要な; 〈表現· 文体などが〉冗長な; 〈システムなどが〉重複 [冗長] 性のある; 代理機能のある.
For many of us, matcha (which literally translates to powdered tea in Japanese) and green tea are both green, caffeinated drinks. So it can be confusing when a drink has the words matcha and green tea in the title, like Starbucks’ iced matcha green tea latte. Isn’t that redundant?

matcha green tea latteって確かにかぶってるなw matchaだけだと伝わらないかな？って配慮からのネーミングなんだろうけど。
befitting
意味 ふさわしい, (似) 合っている .
Matcha also has a shorter production process compared to green tea. The leaves are harvested by workers who know how to pick the best leaves. The stems and veins are removed from the leaves and then ground into a fine powder befitting its name. This is why you’re unlikely to find matcha tea leaves, and the concentrated tea powder means you will only need ½ to 1 teaspoon per cup.

抹茶の茶葉は見かけないですね。一部の好事家向けにしか売ってなさそう。
clumpy
意味 塊の多い, 塊のような, 塊状の.
Both matcha and green tea can be prepared hot or cold. To make a hot cup of matcha, it helps if you have a whisk to evenly dissolve the powder in hot water. This will result in a smooth rather than a clumpy drink with mouthfuls of bitter sips. For a cold matcha drink, shake it with water and ice to dissolve.

抹茶ってこの泡立て工程があるので敬遠しちゃう。溶かすだけでOKなものは添加物多いから、それなら緑茶でいいやんてなる。
